Here are some posts from Katie's blog. Since I'm starting over, I am going to get rid of the girls blogs and put everything in this one. This was Katie's summer.

Ugg, Heart Surgery...August 7, 2008

I had to have my aorta fixed. It is what is called BAV with stenosis. They had to blow up a balloon in my valve to stretch it out a little bit. It would make my heart stronger and work better. I had to go to Charleston for a few days. Here is a picture of me right after surgery with Woofie, my best surgery buddy. He has been though lots of surgeries with me. I am feeling fine now and I'm ready for school.


A Chance of a Lifetime...July 19, 2008


I was asked by a friend of my moms to do the honors of throwing out the first pitch in the local Blowfish baseball game on July 19th, 2008. I was asked because my moms friends organization DAR was doing a fundraiser for MUSC Heart Hospital. I was going in to have my heart surgery on July 22, so they asked me to do it. I had a blast!! My mom and dad and sister came to watch. My 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. Harrell came out to watch too. This is a picture of her and her family; soms Ethan and Dillion and Mr. Randall her husband.
